Wilson administration. The ex
isting law and the one about to
be enacted must be read togeth
er to understand the total tax.
In the first place, unmarried
men are allowed only $1000 ex
emption and married men but
$2000. plus $400 for eachIepend-
ent child, not exceeding two in
all. Let us take the case of a
married man without, children,
with a net income of $5000,
which is the limit from which
the new super taxes begin; his
taxes for the enrrent year will be:
On incomes from $2000 to
$4000 (new) $40
On incomes from $4000 to
$5000 (double) 40
Total $80
This is based on a net income
after all deductions of taxes,
interest on debts, untaxable in
come or income tax paid by
corporations. Usually this will
represent a man with a gross in-
come of at least W-m.
If the net income is $75000, he
must pay five per cent, on the
additional $2500 (or $125). mak
ing $205 his total income tax, In
comes beyond $7500 have a rap
idly rising surtax and supertax.
In case the above man is un
married, his tax will be $100 on
a net income of $5000 and $225
on $7500. The new law makes
changes in methods1 of adminis
tration which must be carefully
studied, especially those clauses
dealing with exemptions and pay
ments at the source, which latter
are abandoned except for tax
free securities. It is expected
that in a abort time the Treasury
Department will issue a complete
statement dealing with the law
and regulations permissible un
dar it. The new taxes are pay
able on incomes for the whole of
this year and it i3 incumbent on
every taxable to have his ac
counts in good order ready for
governmental inspection if that
i3 found necessary.-Philadelphia
